Gripping shoulder blocks
Wide grooves in the shoulder combined with staggered shoulder blocks provide multiple edges with extra bite when travelling off-road.

Tyre protection
The specially enhanced thick rubber under the tread filters noise and vibrations usually generated from the tread blocks contacting the road surface, giving you a much quieter ride all round.

Maximum sidewall strength
Sidewall plies made from double layer high tensile polyester give the tyre maximum strength. A progressive shoulder profile ensures you'll have great handling, even when cornering hard.

Lower running costs
Michelin Sychrone advances ahead of its field with a rolling resistance of almost 20% lower than that of the market level. This is a result of its silica based tread compound that translates to providing you with reduced fuel consumption.

Handling and stability
Two reinforcing steel belts, beneath a zero degree nylon cap ply maintain the tyre shape. This means you will experience complete stability, even at high speeds.

Steering control
A wide central rib provides a larger runner to road contact patch, delivering you greater steering response.

Wet grip and control
Wide circumferential grooves offer excellent water evacuation for your complete driving confidence in the wet.
